Assume that 8 independent calls are placed to the airline. (a) What is the probability that at least one call will connect successfully? (b) What...
A real estate agent works 9 am to 5 pm, Monday through Friday. The average number of sales call this agent gets is 6 per day. Furthermore, assume that the probability of a sales call for this agent is the same for any two days and the sales call in one day are independent of sales call on any other day. Using this information to answer the following questions (40 through 43) pls show work 40. What is the probability...
5. You observed that the time your friend Alice talks on a phone conversation is exponentially distributed with mean 5 minutes. You call her one morning and her line is busy. Assuming that she is in a phone conversation: (a) (8.5 pts) What is the probability that she would finish the conversation in (b) (3 pts) What is the expected additional conservation time before she (c) (6 pts) If the conversation time is uniformly distributed with mean 5 another 5...
Bob owns a car rental company that has a fleet of 10 cars. Each car battery has an Exponentially distributed lifespan with a mean of 2 years. At the beginning of last year (Jan. 1, 2019), Bob replaced all the batteries. a) (5 points) What was the expected number of Batteries that Bob had to replace last year? b) (5 points) What was the probability that Bob had to replace 4 Batteries in 2019? c) (5 points) Bob replaced 3...
3. A customer support center for Bell Computer Company (BMC) receives an average of 2.5 phone calls every 5 minutes. Assume that the number of calls received follows Poisson distribution with λ = 2.5 in answering the following questions What is the probability that no calls will arrive during the next five minutes? What is the probability that 5 calls will arrive during the next 5 minutes? What is the probability that at least 3 calls will arrive during the...
(1) Busy car wash Suppose you run a (busy) car wash, and the number of cars that come to the car wash between time 0 and time s > 0 is a Poisson process with rate λ = 1. The number of red cars that come to the car wash between time 0 and time s > 0 is a Poisson process with rate 2. The number of blue cars that come to car wash between time 0 and time...
